DENTO-ALVEOR SURGERY

WHAT IS DENTO-ALVEOLAR SURGERY?

Not dissimilar to the circumstances of wisdom tooth surgery, your dentist may require Dr Younessi to perform surgery to remove a broken down, infected, previously root-filled, or otherwise complicated tooth.

Removal of such teeth and then repair of the resultant defect is the domain of an Oral and Maxillofacial surgeon and the procedures are broadly referred to as dento-alveolar surgery. This term literary means surgery on the tooth and the tooth-bearing jaw bone.

The relevant technical features are for all intents and purposes identical to wisdom tooth surgery.
